Free at Last<\/em>\u00a0examines Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.\u2019s\u00a0I Have a Dream<\/em>\u00a0speech, looking at the poetry, grammar, and vocabulary of the most important modern statement of America\u2019s commitment to the equality of its citizens.<\/p>\n

In this book, Michael shows how powerful emotion is enhanced by repeated ideas and words. Dr. King\u2019s vision of the future and great call to freedom were further achieved by carefully chosen vocabulary conjured by metaphor; by the poetics of meter, alliteration, and assonance; and by other carefully selected grammatical devices. The speech is a masterpiece, and this book explores its construction in depth.<\/p>\n

The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom took place on August 28, 1963. Its purpose was to draw attention to the injustice of segregation and to push for jobs and economic equality. The statue of Lincoln was chosen as the backdrop for the speeches, and Dr. King began with words that echoed the beginning of the\u00a0Gettysburg Address<\/em>: \u201cFive score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation\u2026but one hundred years later, the Negro is still not free.\u201d<\/p>\n
